The Effect of Environmental Awareness on the Management of Higher Education

Higher education management is an important way to cultivate college students' awareness and behavior of ecological environment protection. The survey results show that at present, college students mainly rely on theoretical courses and lectures to receive ecological civilization education, but they lack practical links, which is different from the goal of ecological civilization education. Therefore, this paper comprehensively considers the weight of eco-environmental protection consciousness to higher education management and their relationship by using fuzzy comprehensive evaluation analysis method, which provides scientific basis for relevant decision-making. On the whole, fuzzy comprehensive evaluation analysis method can help to deeply understand the relationship between different factors and provide strong support for promoting eco-environmental protection in higher education management.

Design and Use of a Mobile Game Developed to Raise Environmental Awareness in Secondary Schools

This research aims to develop, improve, and evaluate a mobile game to improve students' environmental awareness and investigate the game's impact on the development of environmental awareness. The research was conducted with 74 sixth-grade students and two teachers at a secondary school in Bursa during the 2022-2023 academic year. The environmental awareness scale, observation notes, and semi-structured interview forms were used as data collection tools. The results showed a significant difference between the scores in the pre-test and post-test in favour of the post-test. The developed mobile game significantly affects environmental awareness. The observation and interview data were analyzed using cyclic coding and thematic analysis methods. Three themes named “the effects on motivational processes,” “the effects of structuring of knowledge,” and “the effects of environmental awareness” emerged. Findings showed that the game mechanics included in the developed mobile game positively affected the “autonomy and self-efficacy” of the intrinsic motivation elements of the students to achieve their individual goals. Findings also revealed that the mobile game improves students' feelings of attention, interest, satisfaction, and confidence. In addition, it has been found that students structure their knowledge by resorting to reflection with the score table and instant feedback mechanisms in the mobile game.

Will the carbon emissions trading system promote enterprises' willingness to pay for carbon emission reduction?

AbstractThe emissions trading system (ETS) is one of the effective measures for energy conservation and emissions reduction, and the impact of the carbon ETS can be reflected in the willingness of enterprises to pay for carbon emissions reductions. However, there has been little research exploring the relationship between the two. Therefore, this study fills this knowledge gap by comprehensively investigating the influence of China carbon ETS policy (ETSP) on the willingness of enterprises to pay for carbon emissions reductions, and incorporates environmental awareness (EA), green technology innovation (GTI), and climate risk awareness (CRA) into the research model, thus constructing a new theoretical framework. Empirical analysis is conducted using the structural equation modeling method based on survey data from 478 Chinese enterprises. The results indicate that: (1) the China carbon ETSP can promote the willingness of enterprises to pay for carbon emissions reductions. (2) The China carbon ETSP can also promote the EA, GTI, and CRA of enterprises. (3) EA, GTI, and CRA can also promote the willingness of enterprises to pay for carbon emissions reductions. (4) Mediation effect analysis revealed that EA and CRA, respectively, play a mediating role in the influence process of the China carbon ETSP on the willingness of enterprises to pay for carbon emissions reductions. However, GTI does not have a mediating effect in this process. (5) Comparative mediation analysis found no significant differences in the mediating effects of EA and CRA. This study provides constructive practical recommendations for future carbon market mechanism construction and enterprise emission reduction policy formulation. It also offers guidance and reference for the behavioral decision‐making of enterprises in carbon market transactions, and carries practical significance and policy advocacy value.

The Effect of Environmental Awareness, Sustainable Corporate Image, and Green Product Price on Consumer Purchase Intention in Indonesia

This quantitative study examines the relationship between customer purchase intention in Indonesia and environmental awareness, sustainable company image, and green product costs. Likert scale items were used to measure the dimensions in a survey with 279 Indonesian consumers as a sample. Regression analysis was performed on the data using SPSS version 26. The findings showed a strong positive correlation between customer purchase intention, green product price, sustainable company image, and environmental awareness. In particular, customer purchase intention was positively influenced by more environmental awareness and good opinions of business sustainability. Furthermore, Indonesian customers showed a readiness to pay more for environmentally friendly goods. Businesses and legislators seeking to encourage sustainability and ecologically conscious customer behavior in Indonesia should take note of these findings.

The Effect of Environmental Awareness on Work Engagement and Employment Resilience

A crucial aspect that employees must have is resilience as well as high work engagement. Employees who are actively involved and resilient in difficult situations at work will make higher contributions than employees with low resilience and engagement, who tend to be passive. Unfortunately, work engagement and resilience can also be influenced by environmental awareness. This study aims to see the influence of environmental awareness on work engagement and work resilience in employees, especially mining employees. The type of research used is quantitative research with a saturated sampling method. The population in this study amounted to 302 people. The subjects selected were mine employees—data analysis techniques using simple linear regression tests. The results showed that, individually and jointly, environmental awareness affected work engagement and work resilience in mining employees. The results of this study answer the assumption that workers experience a dilemma. Otherwise, environmental awareness still makes employees have high work engagement and resilience even though they work in mining companies.

Influence of environmental awareness on the willingness to pay for green products: an analysis under the application of the theory of planned behavior in the Peruvian market.

This paper aimed to build a predictive model through an empirical study to examine the influence of environmental awareness (EA) on attitude (ATT) and perceived behavioral control (PBC), as well as to determine the influence of the three variables of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) on willingness to pay (WP) for green products in the Peruvian market. A total of 405 Peruvian consumers were surveyed. Most of them were between the ages of 18 and 30 and single. To test the hypotheses, partial least squares (PLS-SEM) were used using the SamrtPls4 software. The results show the significant positive effect of EA on ATT and PBC. The positive and significant effect of ATT, SN, and PBC on WP was also tested A total of 405 Peruvian consumers were surveyed. Most of them were between 18 and 30 years old and single. To test the hypotheses, partial least squares (PLS-SEM) was used using SamrtPls4 software. The results show the positive and significant effect of AD on ATT and PBC. The positive and significant effect of ATT, SN and PBC on WP was also tested. The research provides antecedents that allow evaluation of the possibility that companies and governments adjust the dissemination strategies and related public policies regarding the impact of environmentally responsible behavior in order to contribute to the development of environmental awareness as a variable that promotes the disposition of consumers to pay for environmentally friendly products.

Environmental awareness and intention to reduce food waste among urban people

Environmental issues and food waste are still crucial issues today. Indonesia, which is still facing problems of food security and stunting, is reported to be ranked second in the world as a contributor to food waste. This study aimed to measure the level of environmental awareness and intention to reduce food waste among urban people in Indonesia. One thousand ninety-eight samples were collected from five major provincial cities: Jakarta, Bandung, Semarang, Yogyakarta, and Surabaya. The results show that environmental awareness and intention to reduce food waste are already high. The results also prove that the effect of environmental awareness on the intention to reduce food waste is positive and significant. The limitation of the report in this paper does not include actual behavior to see whether high environmental awareness and intention to reduce food waste automatically creates actual behavior to reduce food waste. The actual behavior to reduce food waste in Indonesia is still concerning. So the recommendation for future research is to include actual behavior to reduce food waste in the research model..

An Empirical Model for Assessing the Impact of Air Quality on Urban Residents’ Loyalty to Place of Residence

There has been a growing interest in the impact of environmental awareness on ‘green’ or ‘environmentally friendly’ consumption patterns, and this has been the subject of much research by environmental psychologists. However, the effect of environmental awareness on residents and their attachment to their homes and their environment has received little attention and is worthy of closer examination. Outdoor air quality can be considered one of the most critical environmental factors impacting the value of a residential location.This research investigates how air pollution-related environmental factors influence residents’ attachment to the place of residence and their willingness to move. It defines the structural relationship between air pollution awareness parameters, which are later employed in the proposed structural equation model (SEM), to explain ‘district loyalty’. A survey was carried out in Almaty, Kazakhstan, one of the most populated and polluted cities in Central Asia. A total of 550 respondents responded. Based on the overall model’s test results, the factors relating to district loyalty explained the 17.5% variation in the samples, which suggests that the perception of residents to their district air quality has a low-level impact on loyalty to their place of residence. The power of perceived environmental risks appears to have little relation to district loyalty. The most influential factor on the model is environmental behaviour parameter, which is about adopting attitudes and behaviours aimed at minimizing negative impacts on the environment. When the perceived environmental risk increased, their place attachment levels only slightly decreased. However, the obtained results do not confirm that district loyalty significantly correlates with their readiness/unreadiness to move to another residence in order to enjoy improved air quality.To sum up, environmental awareness of local air quality seems not to directly affect residents’ attachment to place. Nevertheless, indirect effects can be presented in research relating to urban residents’ place attachment. Research, policy and sectoral implications of the findings are addressed and discussed in detail.

Crowdfunding green projects in Brunei: awareness and investing preferences

PurposeThe objectives of this study are to determine the level of awareness of crowdfunding and green projects among Bruneians, to investigate the preference of Bruneians regarding funding through crowdfunding as well as to evaluate the willingness of Bruneians to use crowdfunding as a funding alternative for green projects in Brunei. In addition to that, this study aims to identify the effects of environmental awareness and environmental concern on the willingness to crowdfund green projects.Design/methodology/approachA total of 177 responses from an online questionnaire distributed via convenience and snowball sampling was used for data analysis. Frequency, descriptive, correlation and regression analyses are used to achieve the aims of this study.FindingsThe study finds that the awareness of the concepts of crowdfunding and green project is high among Bruneians, but the level of their familiarity of crowdfunding platforms and climate change issues is very low. Regression analysis carried out to test the effects of awareness and concern on willingness indicates that while environmental concern has a significant positive effect on the willingness to support crowdfunded green projects, environmental awareness is insignificant.Originality/valueThe study highlights that government policy should be aimed at not just increasing awareness but at increasing the knowledge of the impacts of climate change issue that will raise concern and improve participation of residents in green projects. The study focuses on a rarely studied population, the people of Brunei.

A Short Observation on the Printing Cotton Fabric using Some Technique

Nowadays, the effects of environmental awareness, organic products, and the tendency toward healthy lifestyle also reflect on the textile sector. Disagreements on the risks of the usage of synthetic dyestuffs and increasing environmental awareness result in an enhanced interest in natural resources, environmentally friendly products, and new strategies. That is one of the reasons why the use of natural dyes came back to the agenda due to an increased ecological and sustainable awareness. Unlike non-renewable raw materials of synthetic dyes, natural dyes are mostly renewable and sustainable so in this review show using some nature materials in printing cotton fabric and application in different technique to print cotton as direct printing with nature dyes as madder ink jet printing using reactive dye and dis charge ,resist printing .

Does environmental awareness fuel the electric vehicle market? A Twitter keyword analysis

Zero emission battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles have the ability to reduce CO2 emissions and hence mitigate climate change. Consequently, understanding the macroeconomic drivers of sales has been of increasing interest in the past years. One factor that has frequently been investigated in relation to an individual's electric vehicle purchase intentions is his or her level of environmental awareness (EA). Previous research analysing this question on a macroeconomic level is, however, very limited. Applying a novel method in this field in form of a Twitter keyword analysis, this study aims to analyse the effect of EA on the electric vehicle market in 27 member states of the European Union (EU) as well as two European Free Trade Association (EFTA) states. The results of the investigation show that EA does not significantly influence the electric vehicle market in the investigated time period, and instead indicate why other factors might currently play a more significant role. We contribute to the existing literature by introducing a new measurement method of EA to this research field and by contributing to the understanding of the impact of EA on electric vehicle registrations.

Executives’ Environmental Awareness and Eco-Innovation: An Attention-Based View

Eco-innovation is conducive to reducing the costs and impacts on the environment. Meanwhile, executives play an important role in the whole process of enterprise innovation. However, it is unclear whether and to what extent executives’ environmental awareness (EA) affects eco-innovation (EI). Based on the attention-based view, this study discussed the mediating effect of resource flexibility (RF) on the impact of EA on EI and explored the moderating effect of unabsorbed slack resources (USRs). Using surveys collected from 162 Chinese manufacturing firms, we found that (1) EA has a positive impact on EI; (2) RF partially mediates the relationship between EA and eco-management innovation (EMI) and EA and eco-product innovation (EPI); and (3) the effect of EA on EPI weakens with the level of USRs, but the effect of EA on EMI is not affected by the level of USRs. From the perspective of managers’ attention, this study not only enriches the main drivers of eco-innovation but also provides a theoretical and practical framework for the promotion and development of eco-innovation in China.

Effect of environmental awareness on electric bicycle users’ mode choices

Travellers’ environmental awareness can affect their mode choices. The primary objective of this study is to identify the effect of electric bicycle (e-bike) users’ environmental awareness on their mode choice when the use of e-bikes is prohibited in urban areas in China. The data were collected via a questionnaire survey administered at ten locations in Nanjing, China. Using mixed multinomial logit (MMNL) models, we examined the relationship between the e-bike users’ mode choice and their environmental awareness, combined with socioeconomic and demographic characteristics and trip attributes. The results show that the level of environmental awareness, gender, age, education, income, the ownership of car and conventional bike, and trip distance affect e-bike users’ choices significantly. Those with a high level of environmental awareness are more likely to choose zero-emission transport modes. A stratified analysis reveals that the effect of environmental awareness is associated with their original transport mode choice prior to their use of the e-bike. With a high level of environmental awareness, original car users tend to opt for moderate- or zero-emission modes; original bus and metro users incline to choose a zero-emission mode or their original mode; and few original cyclists and walkers favour moderate- or high-emission modes. The results of the current study provide transport authorities with insights to establish sustainable urban transportation management policies and strategies to increase the share of zero- and low-emission transport modes.
